Battery AC DELCO or OEM Mercedes

Currently I have ac delco batteries in every car I own. I work at a Cadillac dealership though so I get good prices on them and they're good batteries.

The old battery I had in mine was an AC Delco, model ACD41-60 (I'm guessing size 41, 60-month warranty). Sticker said 685 CCA, 330 for charge. It's raining outside right now and I don't have any pictures of the sticker for my current one. The Delco battery finally died after being 8 years old. It showed signs of aging and being weak for about 3 months before that, and then one of the cells shorted out, so it had about a 5-amp capacity.

In our shop we have found that the professional line of AC-Delco batteries seem to last the longest. I believe if you check the AC-Delco was what was installed at the factory in your Suzuki, and that lasted 7 years.

I'm a big fan of AC Delco batteries. Every one I've had has outlived the cars I've put them in.

But the best OEM batteries are definitely AC Delco, the GM ones. Routinely replaced them at 6-8 years, longest I ever saw was the original battery of a 97 Grand Prix that I replaced in early 2008.

get an acdelco group 47 battery fits perfect is the identical size as oem and is probably wayy cheaper than an oem, i paid 85 idk how much oem ones are

I've dealt with this issue on both of my newer AMG vehicles. My older ones never had this problem. From my understanding, this is caused by the new mbux system being a bit of a power hog. I eventually had to invest in a trickle charger, and I have to charge both of my AMGs 3-4 times per year. It gets worse as your battery gets toward the end of its lifespan.

In March of this year I replaced my battery for 98 Civic Ex with an autozone Ac Delco one. With the colder days I started to notice slower cranks if the car had been sitting a day or longer.
